      One prompt move. Five quick ways to try it. Bring one to the drop-in and make it useful on real work.
    

Before / After

The answer stays close to the work.

Before

Ask Copilot: “what's the latest on the Resort launch?”

After

In the Resort-Launch channel, ask: “summarise the last week of messages by theme, list three open questions, name the owner for each, and flag anything that blocks the retail team.”

The key tip

The unlock with Copilot isn't the chat — it's the grounding.

By CIX AI Learning

Copilot is strongest when it is grounded in the file, thread, meeting or workbook you already use.
